Noel Holcroft’s late father – who was a general in the Wehrmacht and once close to Adolf Hitler – left behind a fortune supposedly to make amends for his wrongdoings. But more than forty years later, Noel finds himself embroiled in a web of conspiracies involving the children of two of his father’s Nazi colleagues, a mysterious organisation supposedly devoted to ensuring the Nazis never again come to power, and a woman who may be Noel’s downfall or his only hope.
